This is why I don't get the argument "We need Dana's press conferences, they are better with him and his style of 'Tell it like is' (which is crap because he won't take any real questions with threat of pulling your pass)'".

He's a liability to the sport now, proven by that night. He got more worked up about that decision and trying to engineer a screw job to GSP than he's been about PEDs. He simply can't temper his emotions when something happens counter to his plans of what he and Lorenzo wanted. Crowning Cain was the first time we saw it but he went off and pouted about it and dealt with it. On this night, he couldn't deal with it and he possibly created a reason a legend of the sport will never come back.

Now how is that worth some "Jovial press conferences", I maintain that if the sport needs his press conference and scrums to keep people interested, it is in SERIOUS trouble.
Agreed, he has been mostly absent for a few months now and I like it. He doesn't pollute the embedded series either. My guess he saw his views dwindle on youtube for his vblog and other shit and stopped caring, that and the lawsuit. Zuffa has eyes on all metrics for their content online, that's how they gauge interest in fights and stuff.

The DFW "fans" are few and far between now, whenever someone make a thread about it on the UG, the OP gets blasted.

Poor Dana White.

So ridiculous, as if he didn't know, I guess they changed topic with the quickness?

It was an interview with GSP at some expo in Canada, Toronto I think. Let me try to find the link.

Fast forward to 17m42s for Mike's comments:

here it is:

awesome thanks for the find Ruka. I'm guessing you were referring to Showdown Joe Ferraro here right?
